wow, love the stance of it in the last pic!!!! sits very nicely ;) just have to lower ur gf's now :lol:

also just a question, how much did u pay to get it lowered? and did they sell u shocks at the same time?? because ive been quoted $495 for springs and installation, but i HAVE to get shocks for at least the back at the same time apparently, because if i go over a bump there is a possability the shock will push the springs out!! :? is anyone able to confirm this?? cheers

if you lower a car you should get shocks to match because the shocks are made for standard height, you should get shocks to suit as it will ride alot better than with the originals, but it depends which shocks you wanna get, monroe gt lowered shocks have a bad rep for giving a pretty rough ride

ohh ok then, well the guy said to me that he would do the back ones and then i could come back and get the front ones done at a later time cause they arent as important. He said super low kings or pedders would cost $495 and back shortened shocks would be $250 on top of that.... does that sound about right?

also should i go kings or pedders?
